Predictive Model and Methodology for Heat Treatment Distortion
The purpose of this project was to develop a modeling methodology and software tool to simulate and predict the results of heat treatment, especially distortion. In order to develop a simulation tool, significant technical, analytical, and experimental resources were needed. This task was too large and complex for just one company or organization to address. To this end, 4 national laboratories (Los Alamos National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory/Y-12 Plant, and Sandia National Laboratories) and many partners working through NCMS tackled this effort. The participants through NCMS were Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, The Torrington Company, Deformation Control Technologies, The MacNeal-Schwindler Corp. IIT Research Institute, the Gear Research Institute, U.S. Benet Laboratories (Army), and the Colorado School of Mines. For the purpose of this report only those items pertinent to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory/Y-12 Plant participation in this CRADA will be highlighted along with those related items directly related to these specific efforts that were accomplished by the partners.
